    This humming/vibrating noise that sounds like metal vibrating really fast. I dont know where its coming from as it comes and goes and only happens when shifting to drive or reverse so I am unable to get out and find. Brought to dealer but they were no help.

    I had a noise like that before. Left my flashlight in the engine bay and made its way to a pulley rubbing the flashlight case raw.

    How are the exhaust shields ?
    Automatic or manual transmission ?
    If you hold the brakes and give it gas , does the sound go away or get worse
    What happens when you rev the truck in neutral ?
